Yalumba Winery-Viognier-Eden Valley-Australia-2008-$15.99-A nose of honey and minerals, pale straw to yellow in color.  A medium to full bodied white, honey, pear, with some spice, and minerals, smooth, easy drinking, not as fruit driven as a Californian Viognier (which I prefer).             WS-92  (Top 100 2009 #39)             RP-86                CR-4            Good with cheese, chicken, salads.

Anam Cara Cellars-Nicholas Estate-Pinot Noir-Chehalem Mountains-Oregon-2006-$21.88-A nose of sweet blackberry and spice, medium amber in color.   A full bodied, smooth, easy drinking Pinot, cherry, plum, spice, layered flavors with a good mouth feel and finish.   A great buy, drinks like a $45 Pinot.         RP-91            WS-91               CR-4.5                  Good with seafood, chicken, salads.
